You so easily amuse
Like a pantomime
Such a silent crime
You so easily abuse
Lack of confidence
It's your best offense

You so easily confuse
You can't deny it
Still you try to hide it

Faded
So faded
Like a memory gone
There's no recollection
Faded
So faded
Like a forgotten dream
Further than it seems

You so hastily defy
When you think you need it
You find a way to bleed it

You so hastily deny
Pleading innocence
It's your best defense

You so hastily reply
The moment that you said it
Already regret it

Faded
So faded
Like a memory gone
There's no recollection
Faded
So faded
Like a forgotten dream
Further than it seems

You need coolin', baby, I'm not foolin'
I'm gonna say it, yeah, go back to schoolin'
Way down inside, honey, you need it!
I'm gonna give you my love, I'm gonna give you my love!

Oh - wanna whole lotta love, wanna whole lotta love,
Wanna whole lotta love, wanna whole lotta love

You've been learning, baby, I mean "learning"
All them good times, baby, baby, I've been yearning
Way, way down inside, oh honey, you need it!
I'm gonna give you my love, ha, I'm gonna give you my love, aha!

Oh - wanna whole lotta love, wanna whole lotta love,
Wanna whole lotta love, wanna whole lotta love

"Ah, ah, ah ..." oder "Lo-o-o-ove"

You've been coolin', baby, I've been droolin'
All the good times, baby, I've been misusin'
Way, way down inside, I'm gonna give you my love
I'm gonna give you ev'ry inch of my love,
I'm gonna give you my love - hey! - all right, let's go!

Wanna whole lotta love...

Way down inside, woman, you need - (2 Fuzz-Guitar-Schl"ge)
Lo-o-o-o-o-ove!

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
